how to match the filed name from another field

[tongw]

Hello,

I want to partially match the upload filename from another field.
e.g:

Field1: studentID 0023-ac02

Field2: upload filename will be like this: xyzsh-0023-ac02.ghure (upload filename with location)

And how can I ensure that the upload filename included Field1 on the filename.

Thanks!!

You need to build the filename as a string.
With your example it would be something like:

[pre]String ls, ls_value

ls = 'xyzsh-'

ls_value = dw_whatever.getitemstring(row, 'studentID')
If IsNull(ls_value) or ls_value = '' THEN

// cant use it - do something else​

ELSE

ls = ls + ls_value
// now assign to the other field using the SetItem method​

END IF[/pre]
